Verizon and Mountain Village
Hey, does Verizon work around Mountain Village? If not what phone service should I get and how much will it cost?

Ted

No cell service at all. This is a small village.

Almost no Bush villages have cell service, unless they're line of sight with a tower in a larger city.

Don't know why you might want a cell phone in a village anyway.
I think Iridium has a good unlimited satellite plan. But they are not reliable.
